Oh, they’re hugely important. I’m just saying that the likely apocalypse that’s coming is going to destroy many many hugely important things which are more directly visible (crops we eat, places we live which are currently safe from deadly extreme weather, etc). But yes it’s a big deal; I wasn’t trying to make it sound like it’s not.
Coral reefs have an outsized role in marine biodiversity, which is critical to ocean life, which in turn is critical to life on Earth.
So yeah, I’d say it would very much register.
